And all will be forgiven. This is the way to the promised land, run and press on offense and defense for 48/82 and very good things will happen. I said we would be better, who else sees the light ? Our lottery pick maybe Brooklyns'.

The non-believers stuff is ridculousa and absurd. We all believe in the Celtics. We just disagree on how to build a championship team.

And there may be a few true homers who think we can actually win a championship with this team - yeah sure.

I will admit the Celts are a little better than I thought they would be.

But: it's mostly that the Eastern conference is just terrible.

I do think a couple of the bad teams in the east will improve, but given how terrible the east is, I can see the Celts winning the division.

However, Ainge has to decide if he is going to go for a strong playoff run or pursue tanking in earnest. Either way he has to make some moves.

I also wish peeps would quit talking delusionally about the Nets draft pick. The Hawks are going to take that pick if it's any good, got it?

If the Celts had the Nets pick unprotected, we could feel better about pursuing a playoff berth and getting spanked by the Heat or Pacers. But we don't. We're going to the Hawks draft pick. That will NOT be a lottery pick.

+ 1

1)The Celts have building blocks but are a long ways from a championship team

2) No draft pick will bring them to the promise land next year so why tank and develope a losing attitude for the young players

3) Boston is not a top destination for free agents so DA will have to work his magic with trades

4) Injuries happen hopefully not for the Celts

5) Needs another athletic big and a scorer who are team players and not prima donnas

2014 - two first round picks, ours and the worse of the Nets and the Hawks2015 - two first round picks, ours and the Clippers2016 - two first round picks, ours and the Nets2017 - one first round pick, the better of ours or the Nets2018 - two first round picks, ours and the Nets

we dont own Brooklyns pick we own Atlantas if Atlanta ends up with a better record than the Nets

I believe we get the worse of the Nets or Hawks pick (e.g. if Nets end up with # 6 pick and Hawks end up with # 15 pick, we get the #15 pick)
